AC Induction Motor Characterization

Description

Source: Ali Bazzi, Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT.

The objectives of this experiment are to find the equivalent circuit parameters of a three-phase induction motor using the per-phase equivalent circuit and tests similar to those used in transformer cha...

AC Induction Motors are the workhorses of modern industry, as they are simple, rugged, and reliable. An induction motor has only two main parts. The first is the stationary part called the stator, which consists of stationary coils around a cavity. Suspended in the cavity is the rotor, which is a pair of end rings capping a cylindrical arrangeme...
